How to Activate Your REI Mastercard Online in a Few Simple Steps

REI Mastercard Online Activation: If you just got your REI card, the first thing to do is go to the card page and sign in to manage it. REI’s official card page says existing cardholders should use the “Manage your card” link. The REI Co-op Mastercard is now issued by Capital One, so the card is managed through that system, not U.S. Bank. Once you sign in, you can follow the steps on the screen to set up your card and start using it. The process is meant to be easy, but you should still keep your card close by and make sure your internet is working well before you begin.

You may be asked to confirm your identity before the card is ready. That usually means entering basic personal details and checking account information linked to the card. If you already have access to your card account, the setup can go faster because you can move through the online screens directly.

Support

If you need more help, REI’s official FAQ says you can call the number shown on the back of your card for support. That gives cardholders another simple way to finish the process if they do not want to do everything online.

What you get after the Card is Active

The card comes with rewards that can be useful if you shop at REI often. REI says cardholders earn 5% in rewards on REI Co-op purchases and 1.5% in rewards on all other purchases. The company also says rewards can be redeemed after they post to the account, which usually happens in 1 to 2 business days after the purchase is posted. That means you do not always have to wait a long time before using what you earned.

The card also comes with some extra value beyond normal shopping. REI says there is no annual fee and no foreign transaction fees. That can help people who travel outside the United States and do not want surprise charges when paying in another country.

The card page also says there are other benefits, including fast rewards redemption and some special perks tied to REI events. Currently  REI is also advertising a welcome offer where approved new cardholders can earn a $100 REI gift card after making their first purchase outside REI within 60 days from account opening.

What are the Bnenefits?

This card is mainly built for people who already shop with REI and want extra value from those purchases. The 5% rewards rate at REI is the biggest draw, and the card can also add to a member’s total rewards picture.

REI explains that total rewards can include the annual Co-op Member Reward plus the rewards earned from the Mastercard. The company also says that a 10% Co-op Member Reward is typical on eligible full-price purchases, though it is not guaranteed.
